Ive got the vortex diamondbacks they feel like 1000$ binoculars. For 200$ they are the best deal by far. I did my research.

Looks like a new Diamondback model has come out for 2016.  So there are some great closeout deals on the old model at $140.

I looked through a lot of binos and I'm tellin ya, those Vortex crossfires blow away a lot of the higher priced binos. I have NO regrets at all.

Thanks, guys. Looks like I can't go wrong with a Vortex or Monarch.
